I can tell you that housing construction has shut down in my neighborhood today. It’s eerily quiet.
Way to go CBP and NCGOP @ncgop.bsky.social . That’s really great for our housing issues and the local economy 🙄
I hope those hard working people and their families stay safe

Oh I know you guys @northcarolinagop.bsky.social are behind ICE/CBP going to Charlotte.
Pathetic to terrorize people that only want to work and live in their community.
I’ll be ready if/when they come my way. They won’t stop at Charlotte.

ICE today deployed its agents in Charlotte. The decision follows years of retaliation from federal authorities and North Carolina Republicans—ever since voters elected a sheriff who opposed assisting ICE in 2018.
Bolts reported on this dynamic in 2023:

North Carolina GOP Is Cracking Down on the Black Sheriffs Who Stood Up to ICE
Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.

OK he’s right.
There’s a two party duopoly in this nation.
Is it great? No! Is it reality? Yes.
Creating a third party means building up an entirely new infrastructure from scratch and then fighting both R & D.
Taking over the Dem Party is an easier and more effective route. It’ll take time, but it’s worth it.

I have no idea at the moment why I am a registered Democrat @schumer.senate.gov
You might as well have done this from the start! (And since none of those senators are at risk we know you endorsed this)
I’ll ponder registering as an Independent this week

Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.
They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.
